Another upward shot from city center of Helsinki. Took just next to Forum Shopping center
Lately I've been too busy with my real work and photography-wise I've been hitting on glass ceiling. I know that I still have plenty of room to improve and level up, but right now it's like the inspiration has dried out completely
The ceiling of a vault at the Shah Sheragh shrine.
Taken at Shiraz, Fars province, Iran, April 2009.
art installation at St Pancras station, nicely complementing the Barlow train shed, which when constructed was the widest single span ever contructed.

A historic bank in Detroit. The ceiling is not painted or tiled, it's actually covered with canvas.
Provided with round cushions to view it with, obviously caused people to react in different ways! Also showing how different people use their mobile phones...
Just a small glimpse of one of Vancouver Island's little treasures....the Coombs Market........there are very few people that miss a trip to this unique place when they visit our island......started out as a simple little market.....and it's uniqueness was they keep their goats on it's thatched roof.......like they did in their homeland in Norway...........
Twenty plus years later ....this magical place....... is known all over the world....!!....for it's unique shops.....and the unique things you find in the market from specially foods and baked goods.....to ornamental treasures from all over the world......
Wherever you walk in the market......these colourful cotton lanterns adorn the ceiling.....all shapes....all colours...all sizes......it would be so hard to choose a favorite.....but many do.......cause by the end of the season when Christmas approaches......the ceiing of lanterns is almost all gone.........and awaits for the next year in the Spring to come alive with colour again...!!

The Alhambra is a complex of several palaces, snuggled next to a fortress, set in an extensive garden, perched on a big hill.
The most interesting building is the 14th century Islamic palace built by the Nasrid dynasty with enchanting courtyards, babbling fountains and breathtakingly beautiful panelled rooms with gloriously intricate designs and unusual mocárabe ('stalactite') ceilings. In comparison, the Renaissance palace King Charles V had built next door is an unfinished brutalist monolith designed with all the sensitivity of a brick.

Detail of the vaulted ceiling of the chapter house. The attractive painted decoration was applied in the mid-19th century, the original 14th century scheme consisted of large scale painted figure panels (two of which survive and can be seen in the Undercroft museum beneath the Minster).
York Minster is England's largest medieval cathedral and almost impossible to do justice to. It has an awesome presence that cannot fail to impress.
Uniquely the cathedral was spared the ravages of the Civil War that decimated the medieval art of most English cathedrals and churches, and it thus possesses the largest collection of medieval glass in Britain throughout most of it's vast windows.
Sadly this fortune was not matched by the Minster's vulnerability to fire which has ravaged the building in 3 major outbreaks, the worst in 1829 when a madman set fire to the precious medieval furniture of the choir, which was destroyed along with the organ and the high vaulted ceiling of the eastern half of the church. Only 11 years after this tragedy a careless workman accidentally set fire to the nave roof, which also lost it's vault. Both roofs were rebuilt in replica, but a further fire caused by lightning strike in 1984 destroyed the south transept roof (rebuilt 4 years later).
Most medieval cathedrals were provided with stone vaulted ceilings precisely to avoid the problems suffered here, but York's builders found that building on such an unprecedentedly large scale brought limitations, thus all the Minster's high ceilings had to be built of wood in imitation of stone. An Achilles' Heel, but a beautiful one!
